Neuroinflammation in Alzheimer's disease

Michael T. Heneka, +41 more
- 01 Apr 2015 - 
TL;DR: Genome-wide analysis suggests that several genes that increase the risk for sporadic Alzheimer's disease encode factors that regulate glial clearance of misfolded proteins and the inflammatory reaction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Axonal transection in the lesions of multiple sclerosis.

TL;DR: Transected axons are common in the lesions of multiple sclerosis, and axonal transection may be the pathologic correlate of the irreversible neurologic impairment in this disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microglia sculpt postnatal neural circuits in an activity and complement-dependent manner.

TL;DR: It is shown that microglia engulf presynaptic inputs during peak retinogeniculate pruning and that engulfment is dependent upon neural activity and themicroglia-specific phagocytic signaling pathway, complement receptor 3(CR3)/C3.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Many Roles of Chemokines and Chemokine Receptors in Inflammation

TL;DR: The properties of chemokines and their receptors are discussed and the roles of these chemoattractants in selected clinical disorders are highlighted.
